Wedding Wednesday: Pinterest & WeddingFOMO

Happy Wedding Wednesday! I meant to publish this post earlier this morning, but I decided to stay in bed for an extra 10 minutes instead. It was cold! Okay, today I want to discuss something new that I have started to expiereence since we started planning our wedding - it's called FOMO. 

FOMO stands for "fear of missing out". It's the fear that you feel that you will miss out on something huge if you don't do something or participate in an event. I heard a few of my friends use this term a few times back in college. 

Personally, I had never really had this feeling until I started to experience WeddingFOMO - fear of missing out on seeing something that could be totally awesome for our wedding! 

What do I have to thank for this feeling? Pinterest!

Once I get started looking at wedding themed boards on Pinterest, I can lose hours in the blink of an eye! I keep opening in new tabs, endlessly "liking" pins, and bookmarking pages to look through later on.

I guess I will have WeddingFOMO until we say our I do's (hopefully it will stop once we get married...what if it never ends?!) Here are a few of my favorite wedding pins.

14 Days of Love Instagram Challenge!

There are a few very tall Pine trees that were swaying like crazy last night! We didn't get a big storm or any tornadoes, just a ton of wind and a cold front. 

It has been at least a year since I have completed a photo-a-day challenge. When I saw this on created by Mandy of Miss Indie, I felt inspired! As everyone knows, Valentine's Day is coming up and she thought it would be fun to do a photo challenge all about the things you love! 

Each day will have a different theme, and you just have to take a picture of that item that you love (movie you love, favorite possession you love, quote you love, etc), and use the hashtag #14DaysofLove.

I'm really excited about this photo-a-day challenge! You can see my photo each day by following me on Instagram (@eeelishalynn), starting Feb 1st and ending on Valentine's Day when I will post a collage of my photos for those who do not have Instagram (Hi Grandma, Hi Grandpa!). 

I can't wait to share the love!

Fresh Market

I never knew that The Fresh Market existed until I moved to North Carolina in 2010.  Since discovering the Greensboro location, it has become one of my favorite specialty food stores.

Since it is a specialty food store, it is out of our budget for our regular every week food shopping, but for a treat it's one of the best. It's definitely a store that I like to take my time strolling though, while sipping on a sample cup of coffee and looking at all of the beautiful seasonal displays. 

Here are a few photos from The Fresh Market off of Falls of Neuse from last week. 

As Tall as a Tree

It might not me Caturday, but I think we are all in need of some kitten cuteness this morning. Skwisgaar is growing very quickly! Since we adopted him he has settled into our little home and routine. He is less focused on jumping up on everything or getting behind every piece of furniture we have, partly because he is getting too big to fit. He still loves to play with all of the kitten toys in his basket and giving kisses and snuggles.

Skwisgaar and I hope you have a good day!
